Abstract:
Systems, methods, apparatus and computer program products to facilitate determining nominal interference from one or more interfering base stations are provided. In one embodiment, the method can include computing a nominal interference. The method can also include transmitting the nominal interference to one or more interfering base stations. The nominal interference can be transmitted to at least one of the one or more interfering base stations to compute a loss in transmission rate to a user equipment in a selected cell if at least one of the one or more interfering base stations transmits over a same set of resources on which the user equipment in the selected cell receives information.

Abstract:
A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for supporting RLC layer handover between WAN supported D2D communications and direct D2D communications. In one example, a first UE may be operable to transmit a WAN handover request including a peer identifier and a cell identifier associated with a second UE to an eNB, where the first UE and the second UE are engaged in direct D2D communications. The eNB may be equipped to communicate the WAN handover request to a second eNB associated with the second UE and receive a RLC parameter indicating a last successful reception by the second UE. The eNB may transmit the RLC parameter to the first UE. The first UE may be equipped to determine a subsequent content item based on the received RLC parameter and may transmit the subsequent content item to the second UE via the eNB.
Abstract:
The herein disclosed apparatus, systems, and methods use Almost Blank Subframes (ABS) to manage interference between D2D and WAN transmissions. In particular, an eNodeB is disclosed comprising a controller module operable to obtain an indicator of a need for a quiescent subframe, and to select responsively thereto a subframe of a communication frame, and allocate the selected subframe as an Almost Blank Subframe (ABS). The base station includes a transceiver module operable to communicate the ABS over an air interface, and to send a misinformation signal to another eNodeB device indicating the ABS is not almost blank.
Abstract:
Systems, methods, apparatus and computer program products for facilitating interference management on an uplink in a wireless communication system are provided. In one embodiment, a method can include: determining channel gain information measured on a downlink, wherein the determining is performed by a base station; determining interference from one or more interfering user equipment based on the channel gain information for the uplink; and calculating a nominal interference based on the interference from the one or more interfering user equipment.
Abstract:
Techniques for allocating resources in a wireless communications network are provided. According to certain aspects, a scheme is provided, wherein resources of sub-bands associated with non-interfering links are allocated before resources of sub-bands associated with interfering links.
Abstract:
Certain aspects of the present disclosure relate to a technique of designing a Media Access Control (MAC) scheduler for uplink communication in high rate wireless data systems, such as Long Term Evolution (LTE) wireless communication systems.

Abstract:
Systems and methodologies are described herein that facilitate interference control and resource management in a wireless communication system. As described herein, a base station, terminal, and/or other entity in a wireless communication system that observes interference from one or more other network entities can construct and communicate resource utilization messages (RUMs) in order to request the interfering network entities to conduct power backoff on designated resources. Parameters constructed as a function of quality of service (QoS) and/or priority metrics (such as head-of-line delays, queue lengths, burst sizes, delay targets, average rates, or the like) can be included within the RUM, such that an entity receiving the RUM can compute QoS changes associated with various power backoff levels in order to select a power backoff level that maximizes overall system QoS performance.
